SpaceX's $7.5T Pay Package: 100 Terawatts and a Mars Colony
Elon Musk's SpaceX compensation package only vests if SpaceX hits a $7.5 trillion valuation, launches 100 terawatts of compute into space (1,000 times today's global data-centre capacity of 0.1 TW), and establishes a Mars colony of 1 million people. People laughed at the Tesla package too.
Mars colony clause: 1M people
Elon Musk's SpaceX pay package requires establishing a permanent Mars colony of at least 1 million people as one of its conditions.
Global data-centre capacity: 0.1 TW
Current global data-centre compute capacity sits at approximately 0.1 terawatts, making Elon's 100-terawatt compute target 1,000 times today's total.
